  The OneCourt device gives blind and low-vision sports fans the opportunity to engage with basketball games through touch.

The article from Marketplace discusses how new technology is enhancing the experience for blind sports fans at live events. Innovations like haptic feedback devices, audio descriptions, and specialized apps are being developed to provide real-time information about the game's action, player movements, and even crowd reactions. These technologies aim to make sports more accessible and enjoyable for visually impaired individuals, allowing them to feel more connected to the live sports atmosphere. Examples include devices that vibrate to indicate when a goal is scored or when there's a significant play, and apps that offer detailed play-by-play commentary. This push towards inclusivity not only benefits fans but also promotes a broader understanding and appreciation of sports among diverse audiences.
